This project aims to develop increased knowledge of how the concept of circular economy relates to Australian fishing and aquaculture industries, including downstream activities such as post-harvest processing and packaging. It will provide information on how circular practices being applied in other sectors and industries could be adopted by fishing and aquaculture businesses. This includes opportunities for fisheries/aquaculture industries to develop circular linkages with other marine and land based sectors. In addition, it will identify barriers to adoption and develop strategies for addressing those barriers.
